I’m not always good with change, I thought your clickbait title was going to be a goodbye - I’m so glad it isn’t! I really enjoy your videos, looking forward to many more.
Been following you almost from the beginning, your reports have been genuine and I've enjoyed everyone. Don't change the format or yourself, I look forward to another gap year.
What an amazing achievement.. I too find myself single and due to health early retired.. but if I can afford to join I will, as I like the down to earth manner and want to have the confidence to travel by myself.. good luck with your new life journey..
Congratualtions Phil, looking forward to seeing more of your videos - I appreciate a year has elapsed, however the Channel name "My Grey Gap Year" is very unique and catchy, it's now your brand and identitiy, keep it going as long as you can and I wish you every success buddy.
Thought you were going to announce you'd given up tea :) Glad you're carrying on. I've found your videos very helpful in getting best value TPs and status. Getting 10K subs is a great achievement too.
Exciting prospects Phil. I found your channel having cut my teeth with Matt (of Planet fame) and you provide a different slant on things which is why your subscribers have grown exponentially. Best of luck with the Patreon venture. David.
Amazing Phil, so glad you've decided to continue on. I've enjoyed seeing your progress and evolution over the last year. Looking forward to what's next!
Congrats on your first year and all you have achieved and shared. I have watched all your videos and enjoyed them all. I wish you more success; and am looking forward to all your future ones.
Well done to you for building up your channel & delighting so many on the way. So pleased that you are continuing your travels. Please don't forget the hoi polloi.
I’ve just discovered your channel(thank goodness)I’m currently planning my once in a lifetime trip to Australia. I too unfortunately will be doing it solo as I lost my wife in March so this trip is for both of us,hopefully in BC and any tips I can pick up regarding points and anything else that will help is most welcome. Thank you for making your videos so down to earth and enjoyable 👍
Sorry for your loss Stu, I'm sure you'll do your wife proud and have an amazing trip. Australia can be tricky so if you have any questions let me know.
Congrats on the anniversary. Wish you well on the future with your channel. I'll be here watching you grow from strength to strength. Looking forward to more videos and insights.
CONGRATS!! Can’t believe it’s been 1yr already. Keep up the good work…👍. I do have 1 request, please do a “full” 1yr highlights reel that short was great.
Glad to hear that you are not limiting yourself to the one year. Going to change your moniker to Grey Gap Years? 😆 I can't afford to join your Patreon (beyond the free level) at the moment, but I wish you well and will continue to watch your videos.
Brilliant milestone, Phil - congratulations. It's been great to see your channel grow so well over the past year (not something that's easy to do - as I know first hand). Be interesting to see what the next year holds for you!
Thank you for your support, much appreciated, I'm sure you'll know that one video has driven a large amount of the success here, and that's what small UA-camrs like us look for, that gust of wind that can blow us to the next level
Well done mate, 1 year wow! been subscribed from the start glad your doing another year and see 10k year 1 year 2 i recon 30k mate big luv from a local lad from the black country. well done 🙂
Congrats on the achievement Phil and the opportunity to extend your adventures, we’ve enjoyed the content and have joined your patreon evolution journey 😊🎉
I'm a frequent flyer, a life-time Gold and whilst I love the videos about aviation the big draw is your making so many of us laugh and feel happier; good luck!!
Glad to hear your extending the gap year 🎉 It was your Barbados vlog that got me hooked in on your channel, your very down to earth and I enjoy your humour, all the best!
Fantastic Phil, I was late to your channel but binge watched all your vids over a weekend and followed you ever since. Really glad to hear that you are continuing your grey gap year and looking forward to your future content and following in your footsteps very soon. Thanks
Hi, Sounds exciting, congrats on the channels progression. You may recall a few weeks back I told you how I took 2 flights back from Dubai to ABZ on 8 April with BA totalling 200 tier points (90+10x2 double tier point promotion). These flights were taken in the new transition period, my year end being 8 May, but only 100 points have been rolled over to this current year. The outbound flights were 31 March. I called BA several times explaining i believed 200 points should be rolled over but to no avail. you provided me with an email address to write to them. I have written twice & BA still say I am only entitled to 100 tier points rolling over into my new tier point year ending on 31 March 25. To clarify, my lifetime points were credited the full 400 points. Any more advice would be greatly appreciated as I can’t believe this is right ?
Hi, I do remember that, I guess you'd need to ask them why the points weren't credited. You could also ask on FlyerTalk on the Executive Club forum (or perhaps the double points forum) they may be be able to help you.
Omg! I’m in York! Wish I’d know 😂 love look of caviar!
I absolutely love York, my second video ever was about my time there, ua-cam.com/video/vZf51I6479Q/v-deo.html
I’m not always good with change, I thought your clickbait title was going to be a goodbye - I’m so glad it isn’t!
I really enjoy your videos, looking forward to many more.
Thank you Scott, I'm glad you're here to stay. I wanted to end the title WARNING: CLICKBAIT but ran out of characters 😀
Mate, we are very similar in age and background and you have totally enthused me about travelling again. Do not stop
Thanks for that wonderful comment, the whole purpose for me making videos was to inspire others to travel.
I wish you all the very best,
Phil

Hi, I do remember that, I guess you'd need to ask them why the points weren't credited. You could also ask on FlyerTalk on the Executive Club forum (or perhaps the double points forum) they may be be able to help you.
How tall are you ? And what do you weigh ?
I'm 5 feet 4 inches and I have no idea how much I weigh.
Congratulations
Thank you 🍾😊
